Collector value and condition
No reliable single market figure is currently recorded. Value depends on the exact variety, grade, availability, seller location and collector demand.

Frequently asked questions
What is the SOUTH AFRICA 1 Pond 1959 banknote?
It is a 1 Pond banknote from SOUTH AFRICA, dated 1959 and catalogued as Pick 93.
Is this banknote rare?
Rarity depends on the exact variety, surviving supply, signatures, prefixes, condition and collector demand. The denomination alone is not enough to establish rarity.
How can collectors identify the correct variety?
